Any advice on kids bikes please? My DD is 6.5, but the height/weight of a 4/5 year old and not very strong. She's ready for a new bike this spring, been riding a great, lightweight mountain bike in a 14" wheel. She's keen for gears, but we tried her on a 20" and it's just a bit too much bike for her....but a 16" is too small and obviously has no gears.
There are not many 18" bikes out there - why? We tried a Raleigh one, but it weighed a tonne and she wouldn't manage it up hills etc. We are keen cyclists and are keen to buy her something good, but there's not much to choose from when she's bang inbetween a 16" and a 20".
Anyone else been in this situation? Any suggestions? TIA
